This is Task 07 of the Eudyptula Challenge
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Great work with that misc device driver. Isn't that a nice and simple
|
||||
way to write a character driver?
|
||||
|
||||
Just when you think this challenge is all about writing kernel code,
|
||||
this task is a throwback to your second one. Yes, that's right,
|
||||
building kernels. Turns out that's what most developers end up doing:
|
||||
tons and tons of rebuilds, not writing new code. Sad, but it is a good
|
||||
skill to know.
|
||||
|
||||
The task this round is:
|
||||
- Download the linux-next kernel for today. Or tomorrow, just use
|
||||
the latest one. It changes every day so there is no specific one
|
||||
you need to pick. Build it. Boot it. Provide proof that you built
|
||||
and booted it.
|
||||
|
||||
What is the linux-next kernel? Ah, that's part of the challenge.
|
||||
|
||||
For a hint, you should read the excellent documentation about how the
|
||||
Linux kernel is developed in Documentation/development-process/ in the
|
||||
kernel source itself. It's a great read, and should tell you all you
|
||||
never wanted to know about what Linux kernel developers do and how they
|
||||
do it.
|
||||
|
||||
As always, please respond to this challenge with your id. I know you
|
||||
know what it is. I'll not even include it this time, I trust you.
|
||||
Don't make me feel that is a mistake.
